Any update on when these additional filters will be available? Looking at moving from AdobeForms where advanced filtering was possible.

I just wanted to inform you that visual report filters for have now been activated for dropdown, checkbox and radio questions.

Filters for text questions should also be activated tomorrow and I will be continuing to make improvements throughout the week.

Thanks for the updates. Once it works properly this functionality will provide all that i need. It's not quite there yet though....

It seems to struggle if more than one filter applied. I've only got one response in the form that i am testing and the spinning sun shape has been circling continually since i applied a second filter (over 10 minutes). I'll use the on-page feedback sheet to provide further feedback as I continue to test.

Hi Stuart

I'm investigating this now. If possible can you let me know which one of your forms you were creating the report for and the filter you were trying to create?

Thanks

Hi Paul,

It was the CPD eLearning Evaluation form and the CPD Report. The first filter was e.g. Module = "Chest Pain" (which worked fine) and then adding a second filter e.g. Did you have offline time to complete = "Yes" just caused the sun to spin but no filtered report to show.

Thanks,

Stuart

Hi Stuart,

That has now been fixed. Sorry about the delay it took me a while to track down the cause.

Glad to hear that it is working properly for you now Stuart, but could you please also give us some examples on how you would use the filters or what you would like to achieve so that we know if any additional features are added to it while it is being worked on.

Thank you.

Hey, I am using the abode CentralFormat and I am thinking about migrating to Jotform. My problem is that I am using a lot the filtering of data in tables such as "name Contains xyz" or rows Where field= x...these options are absent in Jotfrom. So I am wondering when they would be available.
